Duplex blackpowder loads for the 45/70 Govt.
Howdy all,

I have been doing a little research for my newly aquired NEF Handi-Rifle in 45/70. I plan on running BP loads only thru this rifle instead of smokeless powder. In my quest for information I find there are such things as Duplex loads. My Lyman manual shows this as well. If there is anyone out there that use duplex loads for the 45/70, or who has used them in the past....please share your experiences, load notes, etc.

I haven't decided to try it...but I haven't ruled it out either. Thanks everyone for the help.
Eric
